Vestfold, Historical coastal county in Eastern Norway.
Vestfold stretches along the western shore of the Oslofjord, encompassing 2,167 square kilometers of land with more than 1,400 islands and numerous fjords.
The region contained multiple Viking settlements, including Kaupang, with archaeological discoveries of significant vessels like the Gokstad ship found in Sandefjord.
The maritime heritage of Vestfold manifests through its museums, displaying artifacts from Viking expeditions and the regional whaling industry of the 19th century.
The county maintains strong transportation connections through the Vestfoldbanen railway line and multiple ports connecting cities along the Oslofjord coastline.
Mølen Beach in Vestfold holds the distinction of being Norway's largest stone beach, featuring geological formations from the ice age period.
